Re: [libreoffice-users] Numbering/Outline levels in Writer

Hi.
My reply to your first post was

It still does but it seems broke in my 4.1. It is in the selection of 
outlines but not set (configured) but you can get it back.
In Format>Bullets & Numbering you need to go into Position and adjust 
the indent and go into Options tab and for each level change the show 
sublevels. I.E for level 4 it would be show sub levels of 4.

In regards to using styles (F11), Paragraph style Heading one has 
numbering style Outline numbering. Style Outline numbering doesn't 
appear in the styles dialogue so it seems the outline can only be 
changed from Format>Bullets & Numbering when the headings are selected.

So I Suppose if by 'this' you mean your original question;
Assign style heading 1, heading2, etc. as required.
Click into heading 1 and click the numbering on/off icon. Same for other 
headings.
In menu go to Format>Bullets & Numbering and
    - select the outline you require 1. 1.1 1.1.1 ,etc.
    - set the position
    - in options, for each level change the show sublevels. I.E for 
level 4 it would be show sub levels of 4.
